Meet Melissa
Melissa Misgen, owner of Elite Events Catering, has nearly 35 years of catering experience. She began at a young age, working with family in her home state of Minnesota and started catering in Florida in 2000.
“I grew up in a big family in small town in southern Minnesota. I’ve always had an appreciation for great food. I remember digging through the cupboards at a very young age, trying to find ingredients that would make something more exciting and delicious! I guess you could say I have always had a passion for cooking and life has led me on a culinary journey where I long to bring people together to experience food together and create special memories that will last forever.”
Meet John
When it comes to logistics and organization, John keeps the machine well oiled, so to speak! John joined Elite Events Catering full time about 10 years ago, after a 20-year career in retail management. His extensive corporate experience is a huge asset to our team.
